    The Howling Wolves started 47 years ago when I first met my wife.
    Her name tag said Wolf mine was Wolfe... so being suave and debonair I introduced my self ..
    Hi Wolf I am a Wolfe to! She should have turned and run away but here we are 47 years later and still Howling as all Wolves do.
    All she had to do was add an e to her last name and put up with me. Love must be blind!
    THW

    And no we are not cousins! hehehe

    My Avatar says it all.
    I took that picture at the zoo in Cleveland.
    Very hot day and the polar bear was laid back in the water watching all the people watching him.
    Me and 4 other iron workers (Iron Worker Local 17) made the bear cages, rocks, and mote ect. that the bears lived in. I was there to see if the bears liked the work we had done and the free pass was nice also.
    The concrete was sprayed on by some men from Disney Land.

    I also ate my lunch there with Ernie every day the time we were there building this thing.
    I had to start bring a larger lunch because Ernie seemed to grow fond of my lunch. Ernie didn't like mustard.
    Ernie was some sort of African antelope that to me looked like a Ernie.

    I had to choose between Ernie the antelope or Layback the Bear.

    Back in 2005, I joined my first forum (audiokarma.org) and really had no clue as to what was going on, I was that much of a noob. So I figured I may as well puff up my own abilities being the family chef. It wasn't until a few years later that I found out it was the business name of a guy in the UK who cleans appliances. Me, I just dirty them.

    I'm sure we had a thread here already, as I have told this story before. I was an Admin on a forum, I answered a question by a poster, a problem he had been trying to fix for months. He replied back "You are a god!". I replied,"No, I am just a guy". Started using A Guy on new forums after that. Made the mistake of "signing" every post, have typed A Guy ad nauseum, lol. Glad I didn't pick Engelbert Humperdink

    A Guy (see!)

    P.S. It happened here too

    It's funny though. As soon as you know a person's real name you tend to call them by that from then on. :)

    The exception to that rule for me is ganjiry, even when I'm talking to him on TS I still call him ganj instead of Ryan. It's just loads easier!

    Mine comes from my initials (Aritra) and 2116 comes from my dad's official number or something which he uses to identify himself where he works. It is actually 21115 but I thought I'd have a smaller ID and something similar to Dad's so I kind of copied it and modified it and that is how you get 2116.

    My username IownAmoneyPit relates to any computer I own having paid top dollar originally, then 6 months later on sale for 1/3 the price topped off with hardware upgrades 1 to 2 years later worth at least 1/2 the original cost.

    Mine is really simple, Devlin is my second name, i always get called Devlin from all friends, Don't know why i've always came to the conclusion it sounds better than "Michael" and "1967" is the year Celtic Fc (I'm a massive fan) won the European Cup (Champions League before it was called "Champions League) and we were also the first team in Britain to do so:)!
